Jikuu Mahou de Isekai to Chikyuu wo Ittarikitari Chapter 27 – The neighbor

「This is『Azide』-san from next door. What is it Azide-san?」

It seems the ojisan’s name is Azide.

「I just returned from a trip…… and smelled something delicious next door so I was wondering what it is.」

「Actually, this is Seiji-sama’s cooking, he’s treating us a feast.」

「Thanks, my name’s Seiji.」

「I’m Aya.」

「I am Elena.」

「Nice to meet you, my name is『Azide』and I live next door. Oh? Elena? I feel like I’ve heard it somewhere……」

c.r.a.p, did he notice!?

I must cover it up somehow.

「Why don’t you join us, we’re having【Curry】?」

「【Curry】, you say? Well then, thank you very much.」

「Ah, Azide ojiisan! Ojiisan’s eating curry, too?」

Apparently, Azide-san is on good terms with the children.

I served curry in a plate and handed it to Azide-san.

「This is!? It’s the first time I’ve tasted something like this delicious!!」

Azide-san doesn’t seem to know the thing called restraint and had another helping.

「Oh~ I’ve been to various places but I’m surprised that there was such a dish.」

「Ojiisan, do you travel a lot?」

Aya interrupted the story from the side.

「It’s actually peddling, I go around and do business in each of the 8 towns in this Delaidos Kingdom.」

「There are 8 towns in this country?」

「Eh, you don’t know? West of the royal capital, there is a big mountain called【Fujiyama Mountain】. There are the 8 towns surrounding it:

to the east (→) of【Fujiyama Mountain】:『The Royal Capital』,

to the northeast (↗)『Nippon Town』,

to the north (↑)『Suga Town』,

to the northwest (↖)『Ikebu Town』,

to the west (←)『Shinju Town』,

to the southwest (↙)『Ebisu Town』,

to the south (↓)『Shinaga Town』,

to the southeast (↘)『Tokki Town』respectively.」

「Which temple are in each town?」

「Temple huh…

In『The Royal Capital (→)』it’s the【Temple of Wind】,

in『Nippon town (↗)』it’s the【Temple of Body Reinforcement】,

in『Suga town(↑)』it’s the【Temple of Water】,

in『Shinju town(←)』it’s the【Temple of Earth】,

in『Ebisu town(↙)』it’s the【Temple of Recovery】, that’s all. 」

「So~ If I want to go to【Temple of Water】, I’ll need to head north to『Nippo Town(↗)』then go around to『Suga town(↑)』, right?」

「That’s right. Is Aya-san going to【Temple of Water】? I plan to go that way the day after tomorrow, would you like to come along?」

「Onii-chan doesn’t have time for long travels so I think it’s impossible.」

「I see, it’s a pity.」

Pikon!

I cast【Track】on Azide-san and use【Surveillance】after realising.

All right, with this the problem is solved.

However, I suddenly notice something.

It’s not only Azide-san that I used【Surveillance】on.

The first【Surveillance】is on Elena,

the second【Surveillance】is on the adventurer,

3【Surveillance】are displayed on the map.

How many【Surveillance】can I use at the same time?

To test it out, I tried to use【Surveillance】on Aria-san.

┌─＜Surveillance＞──

│The【Surveillance】had exceed the usage limit.

│ Please select a【Surveillance】to delete.

│

│・Surveillance 1: Elena・Delaidos

│・Surveillance 2: (Name unknown)

│・Surveillance 3: Azide

└─────────

A screen is displayed.

Apparently, I can use【Surveillance】up to 3 targets. On the 4th use, I need to delete a previous one.

Surveillance 2, I think is the【Surveillance】on the adventurer.

Those I don’t know their names will be displayed as『（Name unknown）』.

I wonder what decides the limit of【Surveillance】?

Won’t the limit of 【Surveillance】 increase in the future?

I delete the adventurer’s【Surveillance】and add Aria-san’s【Surveillance】.

With this, the curry party is over.

We said farewell to the children and head back to the inn.

On our way back, Azide-san handed Aria-san souvenirs from his trip.

It seems our meeting with Aria-san served a better purpose than just enjoying curry.
